Scan to BIM Engineer

We are empowering people to go from concepts to construction within hours, enhancing collaboration in the world of atoms & pushing the boundaries of what’s possible, for humanity over the next few decades.

For phase 1, we're training foundational AI models that create building code-compliant BIM models, cost analysis & documentation from 2D building blueprints.

We are a small team of 32+ and looking for people passionate about 3D generation/reconstruction.

We’re targeting $100B+ opportunity in construction’s design, estimation, and planning software—ripe for disruption by AI-first platforms.

If you're interested in joining an early stage AI startup building foundational models, geometric and physics engines from scratch to transform how the world designs and builds infrastructure, with real autonomy and the resources to solve hard problems, apply or reach out to us today.

About the Role

We're building Augrade's scan-to-BIM capability — converting real-world point cloud data into accurate, structured 3D BIM models. We're looking for someone with deep, hands-on experience on detailed 3D projects who understands point clouds, mesh generation, and the realities of construction data.

What You'll Do

• Build and improve Augrade's point-cloud-to-BIM pipeline — model creation, mesh generation, and data structuring

• Work directly with point cloud capture data, IFC files, and 3D modeling tools (e.g., Blender)

• Apply computer vision techniques to improve accuracy and automation of 3D reconstruction

• Collaborate with a construction-savvy, technically deep team building a new capability from the ground up

• Join onsite gatherings in San Francisco roughly once per quarter

What We're Looking For

• Construction background

• Deep, hands-on experience on detailed 3D projects

• Open to occasional onsite travel to San Francisco (~once per quarter)

Nice to Have

• Point cloud experience — capture, processing, and interpretation

• Mesh generation experience

• Computer vision background

• Familiarity with IFC files and 3D tools like Blender

• Based in or near Bangalore, San Francisco, elsewhere in India, or elsewhere in the US

What We Offer

• Compensation: $180,000–$250,000 USD base (US-based; ranges for India-based candidates will be shared separately and benchmarked to local market). Actual pay is determined by experience, skills, and location, and may fall outside this range in exceptional cases. This role may also be eligible for equity.
